  • 🚨 Breakout session alert! Here’s a sneak peek at another one of our engaging breakout sessions at Experience 2025: A Random Walk Toward More Efficient (Retirement) Portfolios. Investment returns commonly are assumed to be independent (or random) across time in financial models. In reality, investments historically have exhibited varying levels of serial dependence, where the returns evolve nonrandomly for both individual investments, i.e., autocorrelation, as well as across investments, to varying levels. In his breakout session, David Blanchett, PhD, CFA®, CFP®, Managing Director and Head of Retirement Research, PGIM DC Solutions, explores how these effects impact optimal portfolio allocations and notes considerable differences across investment horizons, which can be especially pronounced for more risk averse investors who are concerned with inflation risk, e.g., retirees. Check out David’s preview of his breakout session below! ❗Early bird ends in just TWO days! Join us in Austin, TX from March 30 – April 2 for an unforgettable Experience 2025! Secure your spot today and save $200 – available until February 20! https://hubs.li/Q0378PYf0 #Experience2025 #WealthManagement #InvestmentManagement #RetirementManagement #FinanceConference #ContinuingEducation #NetworkingEvent #Austin #Texas #CPWAcertification #CIMAcertification #RMAcertification
